The water is exhausted and the cold pool is clear, and the smoke is condensed and the twilight is purple.

Spring goes to autumn, and the vast Fangcun Mountain ushers in a golden autumn.

The early autumn season is the most fertile season in nature, and it is the time when the monsters have the least disputes.

It is also the moment when the scenery is the most fertile and beautiful.

Luoxia and lonely birds fly together, and the autumn water is the same color as the sky. What a beautiful sight is this?

Early autumn should be the best time for outings, visiting friends, and hiking and leisure. Even monsters and monsters are mostly playing in games at this time, rather than fighting.

This time is an abundant resource, and youkai often don't need to fight to have a lot of food.

Summer is too hot and dry, and if it is late autumn, then food will gradually start to shortage, and you need to store winter grain, so you have to start fighting, only this early autumn is the time when you don't need to fight, at least not need to fight to the death. So in such an early autumn season, there is generally no youkai who is willing to waste their time and life on fighting, but is enjoying life and storing food.

However, in a canyon of Fangcun Mountain, a battle is breaking out.

The battle in early autumn is obviously not in line with the habits of demon beasts, so one of the two sides of the battle is a human.

This human being, while fighting, also sang a loud and sad song:

"Sitting alone on the side of the road, the cold wind blows and wakes up

Silently accompanied by my lonely shadow

I just want to hug the guitar tightly and tell the bitterness

It was at this moment that I remembered the past

There is a rush in my heart

Leave that reality aside and have no worries

It's like you have everything around you

It seems to build a barrier ...... with others"

This human battle, fierce and fierce with the song, low and condensed with the song, he held a wooden sword, and this weapon should definitely be a sword, but it emitted a strange and pleasant sound of gold, stone, silk and bamboo, sometimes like a snare drum loud, sometimes like a zither melodious, and even at the same time several different sounds.

Standing with humans is a tiger with wings. This winged tiger is more than twice as large as an ordinary tiger, and even if the tail is not counted, it is more than six meters long and more than three meters high. It's a behemoth.

"Ten Thousand Demon Records" said: There are beasts in the northwest, which look like tigers, have wings and can fly, so they will kill people and know people's words. It is rumored that Shaohao's son is not a son, destroys faith and loyalty, worships evil words, and is called poor and strange in the world.

Of course, this one is definitely not the son of Emperor Shaohao at the beginning, but the descendant of Qiqi, who has been degrading for tens of millions of years.

Poor Qi was one of the four fierce beasts of ancient times, and was among the divine beasts at the beginning, but unfortunately he was hunted and killed by Dayu, and then although there was blood flowing in the wild, he was constantly mating with mortal beasts / to keep the species, and the divine blood on his body became thinner and thinner. It is unknown whether there is still the direct bloodline of Emperor Shaohao, but at least the one in front of him is definitely just a hybrid with a mortal beast, and it can't even reach the ground level, it is just a demon beast with physical strength in the middle of the human rank.

But it's precisely because there is only physical strength left, so Qiqi's hand-to-hand combat ability is definitely the top among the monsters in the middle of the human rank.

However, the human who was entangled with Qiqi did not use any magic, but sang while using the same physical strength to fight with him.

The human, topless and armed with a wooden sword, was engaged in a close-quarters fight with Qiqi. The man was eight feet tall...... Well, with modern measurement methods, it is about 1.8 meters, the shoulders are wide and the waist is narrow, and the muscles of the back are perfect inverted triangles. In the face of Qiqi's sharp claws, this person did not dodge or dodge, but sang "Build a barrier with others" to meet him, and then swung out a sword and shouted "Silver Star Explosion" , The sword body suddenly burst out with a silver light more than a foot long, cutting a bloody wound on the tough abdomen of the poor ball, and the claws of the poor Qi, which were sharp enough to cut through gold and iron, although they also hit the man's shoulder, were blocked by a layer of invisible things, and finally although the invisible barrier was broken, the remaining strength was like the end of a strong crossbow, and finally only left a white mark on the healthy wheat-colored skin.

Even though it is the end of a strong crossbow, but Qiqi's claws are also extremely sharp, is this person's skin even tougher than steel?

It was the first time he had encountered such an opponent! His pride, fast enough to dodge many spell attacks, and sharp claws, were almost ineffective. After a few rounds, Qiqi was covered in scars, and the man he was fighting against was only a few cracks in his thighs. With such physical strength, is this a human or a demon beast in human skin?

The one who fought with Qiqi was naturally Wang Xiao.

At this time, Wang Xiao is nineteen years old, and it has been more than a year since he came to this world from the earth in the age of science and technology. At this time, Wang Xiao, because of the long-term battle and hard physical cultivation, his diet was mainly based on the meat of demon beasts, and his nutrition was not ordinary, coupled with the agglutination of the demon pill, it was more than ten centimeters higher than when he first came to this world.

Originally, Wang Xiao already had a height of 1.7 meters, but under the condensation of the demon pill and his insistence on physical cultivation, his height at this time actually reached more than 1.8 meters, and his figure was much more burly and strong, and the whole person looked stronger than at the beginning. The color of the wind and frost on the face is getting heavier, and the complexion is no longer the original "little white face", but a healthy wheat color, the face is a little more like a knife and an axe, and the upper half of the body has dozens of scars that have been corrected, and it is no longer the image of a thin teenager.

In fact, Wang Xiao didn't like this change very much. Because Wang Xiao prefers to be a tall and handsome white-faced scribe like Zhuge Liang, but unfortunately after physical cultivation, Wang Xiao's bones are much thicker at this time, although he is not a naturally powerful and stout man like Liu Zhenwu, but he doesn't look like a scribe. Wang Xiao had no choice but to comfort himself, Zhao Yun is also a military general, not handsome enough?

At this time, Qi Qi had already lost his fierce heart, and he no longer dared to fight to the death with this monster human, his wings shook, and he flew towards the sky reflexively.

Wang Xiao sneered: "You brute, you have killed so many people, do you want to leave like this?

Qi Qi suddenly felt a weight on his head, his scalp tingled, and in his infinite fear, a lazy voice came from above his head, and along with the voice, it was the coercion of a high-ranking monster belonging to the human rank.

"Ah Xiao, you disappointed me so much, you actually need me to make a move. Haven't you come up with a recipe for dealing with an enemy in the air?"

A monkey the size of Qiqi's front paws appeared on the top of Qiqi's head, this black monkey had six ears, a pair of bright eyes were spinning, and pressed the back of Qiqi's head with his left front paws. Then, Qi Qi's entire body suddenly froze, and then fell from the air.

Wang smiled and sighed: "Lao Hei, you are really amazing, this guy has been fighting with me for so long, but you have done it all at once?"

Lao Hei said lazily: "I'm also a big monster at the top of the human level now, and I naturally don't need to waste much energy to deal with such a little demon in the middle of the human rank." Although this Qiqi is covered in rough skin and thick flesh, as long as I concentrate my strength, it is not difficult to break through its flesh and skin. Find the gap in the cervical vertebrae of this guy and punch into my demonic power, so that it can't even climb up. ”

"Cut, weren't you still in the middle of the human rank half a year ago...... Now it's so embarrassing!" Wang Xiao walked in front of Qi Qi, stretched out his long sword, and read: "Silver Star ——!" With these two words, the silver light on the long sword lit up, but it did not shoot, only a silver light about an inch long poked out slightly on the sword body. Wang Xiao skillfully pointed his sword downward at the top door of Qiqi, and then shouted a word "Burst!".

With the burst word exiting, the blade of the sword suddenly shot out a sharp silver ray that was only a foot long, and suddenly pierced through the top door of Qiqi.

Silver Star Burst.

This is one of Wang Xiao's self-created tricks, but it is not a new poem, but a revision of Silver Starfall.

The normal Silver Star Fall is to launch the sword qi, which increases the power and range as the cultivation increases. However, this move Silver Star Burst condensed the sword qi, borrowing the power of the soul of the hedgehog sideburns in the spirit weapon "Love Snow", and the explosion was only one foot long, but it was about three times more powerful than the Silver Star Fall consumed by the same true yuan.

Not only that, Wang Xiao can also use the amplitude effect of Lianxue on the true yuan to compress the true yuan additionally, and the current limit of Wang Xiao is to use this trick with the amount of true yuan falling three times that of the ordinary silver star. In other words, the power of the Silver Star Explosion that Wang Xiao emitted with all his strength at this time was nine times the power of the Silver Star Fall, an ordinary disciple of the Blue Lotus Sect of the same rank.

Of course, there are naturally advantages and disadvantages, and there are two flaws in the nine-fold power Silver Star Fall: one is that condensing the true element requires full concentration and a certain amount of time to store gas, and the other is that the range is only one foot outside the blade of the sword, so it is difficult to use in sports warfare, and it can often only be used to attack enemies who are temporarily unable to move.

In an ordinary battle, there is no time for Wang Xiao to recuperate, and he can only use the Silver Star Burst of ordinary power.

Of course, whether it is the ordinary triple Silver Star Fall or the Silver Star Burst, it is all borrowed from the power of Love Snow. If he left this spiritual weapon, most of Wang Xiao's tricks would not be able to be released...... In fact, at this time, Wang Xiao's use of Lianxue is still very shallow. Whether it is the use of the nine-tailed soul in the new poetry and song, or the use of the soul of the hedgehog sideburns by Silver Starburst, it is the most superficial. Didn't take advantage of the true mystery of the artifact at all. However, compared with the beginning, Wang Xiao at this time at least let Lianxue exert an effect equivalent to a high-grade treasure, which can be regarded as a small improvement.

For most of the past six months, Wang Xiao has been hunting demons on Fangcun Mountain as a cultivator. With the help of the cultivation speed of the upper rank of the old black rank, plus the harvest of many demon pills in the middle or lower rank of the human rank, after absorbing the demon pill for more than half a year, Wang Xiao's true yuan has reached the peak of the middle rank of the human rank at this time.

In fact, there is still a surplus of the demon pill obtained, but Wang Xiao's cultivation is stuck at the level of the peak of the middle rank of the human rank, and before he comprehends the mystery of the upper level of the human rank and enters the upper level of the human rank, even if he cultivates or swallows the demon pill, he cannot increase his cultivation.

After Lao Hei explained, Wang Xiao knew that the middle rank of the advanced person was not the same as the upper rank of the advanced person.

What is needed in the middle of the human level is the true element, as long as the true element is reached, the meridians will naturally expand, and then in the slow cultivation to reach the middle of the human level. The reason why Wang Xiao almost went wrong when he advanced was because Wang Xiao cultivated the demon path, so there was one more process of condensing the demon pill than ordinary cultivators.

Generally speaking, for normal cultivators, the middle level of human rank is attainable by any cultivator. It only needs to accumulate slowly, and when the time comes, it will naturally come to fruition. But it's a bit more difficult to advance to the upper rank.

At the peak of the middle of the human rank, the true element volume of the human body has basically reached a limit.

So at this time, if you want to hold more true elements, what should you do? In fact, the solution is also simple, that is, to increase the amount of true elements that the original body can hold.

A simple analogy is to go to the advanced median, which is to look at a reservoir to store water. At the advanced level, it is necessary to expand the capacity of the reservoir. And this expansion of the capacity of the reservoir is to strengthen the meridians and dantian, so that the body's meridians and dantian are stronger and tougher, and then contain more true yuan.

The way to change the quality of the true element is similar to each sect. In the mind of the Qinglian Sect, the normal way is: practice diligently, do not slack off day and night, and it will naturally come naturally.

This is not only the relationship between the true element itself slowly condensing, but also the meridians need to be slowly strengthened in order to withstand more true elements.

Of course, some great sects can do this through heavenly treasures, treasured elixirs, or some great masters forcibly helping to condense the meridians. But at present, Wang Xiao does not have that opportunity.

Not to mention Wang Xiao, even Liu Zhenwu didn't have this opportunity. Liu Zhenwu is said to be a side branch of the royal family of the Han Dynasty, and he has reached the peak of the middle rank of the human rank when he participated in the second time as early as three years ago. Liu Zhenwu's qualifications are extremely high, but he still needs to go through three years of hard work and condensation before he finally broke through the barrier of the middle of the human rank and reached the upper level of the human rank this year. And Wang Xiao's cultivation has only been for one year, and he has only reached the middle of the human rank for half a year, how can he immediately break through to the upper position of the human rank?

So all Wang Xiao can do is to practice slowly by himself.

However, compared to the middle peak of other human ranks at this time, Wang Xiao had to exceed twice the amount of true yuan.

Because Wang Xiao has a demon pill.

Wang Xiao's demon pill has a special effect, which is to include all the true elements in the meridians. After his own cultivation reached the peak of the human level, Wang Xiao put all the true yuan into the demon pill, but found that the meridians could still continue to contain the true yuan.

In other words, Wang Xiao's total true element volume is twice that of the median rank of ordinary people. After the true yuan in the meridians was consumed, Wang Xiao still had a demon pill full of energy.

Of course, if it is in a "double full" state, the effect of Wang Xiao Demon Pill's hidden strength will be gone. Others will see that Wang Xiao, whose meridians are full of true yuan, has reached the middle of the human rank.

Fortunately, ordinary people can't find out that Wang Xiao has a demon pill, and Wang Xiao still has a chance to be a yin person.

In fact, in terms of the total amount of True Yuan, some cultivators who had just reached the upper level of the human rank were actually not much higher than Wang Xiao's True Yuan. However, the spells that can be used by cultivators who have reached the upper level of the human rank are not comparable to Wang Xiao. When having almost the total amount of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, whoever has more powerful spells and who has more spells will undoubtedly have more advantages.

So, Wang Xiao stopped his cultivation method of hunting monsters. What's more, it's about developing new, one's own poems and songs.

Therefore, Wang Xiao has not practiced in Fangcun Mountain for some time, and in the past month, he has basically only been pondering and creating new poems in the city. This time the battle with Qiqi was not for hunting, but for the purpose of eliminating pests.

A few days ago, this poor Qi broke into Orion Village near Fangcun Mountain and killed more than 10 people. Those hunters, in their grief, begged Wang Xiao to eliminate the harm for them.

Wang Xiao has been hunting around here for more than half a year, so he has become famous among the Orions, because Wang Xiao is kind, always laughing and talking to these lowly Orions, and there is a laughing word in his name, and he is called "Laughing Man" by the nearby Orions. This time, there was a fierce beast like Qi Qi, and the hunters didn't dare to go to other cultivators who regarded the laity as grass mustard, and only dared to ask Wang Xiao for help. Therefore, Wang Xiao also ended a month's recuperation and came to Fangcun Mountain again to eliminate harm for the people. At the same time, it is also to test his newly created song recipe, a generation of music wizard Huang Jiaju's "Goodbye Ideal"!

The characteristic of the elixir of longevity is that the practitioner must feel it in his own heart in order to exert the power of the verse. But Wang Xiao is just a teenager, who has little experience in the world, except for the creation of "I Quietly I Left" because of Ruoxue's departure, and the creation of "Men Should Be Self-reliant" because of the struggle alone in another world, there is really no other song or poem that can really make Wang Xiao "feel something".

Wang Xiao remembers a lot of superb poems, such as Su Shi's water tune song head, Li Houzhu's meeting and so on, but the artistic conception and charm in those poems are something that Wang Xiao can't achieve "feeling in his heart", so he can't turn it into a new poem that can be consistent with the recipe for longevity.

And after trying in the past few months, Wang Xiao finally found a song "Goodbye Ideal" that can play a certain effect. In this famous work of beyond, there is a kind of sadness of leaving the world independent, and this sadness and loneliness are what Wang Xiao, who belongs to the "alien" in this Shura world, deeply feels in his heart.

Alone in a foreign land as a stranger, every festival is full of relatives.

It's almost August 15 again, and in this feeling of homesickness and loneliness, Wang Xiao successfully sang this song with the heart of longevity, and successfully created the third new poem. However, in this piece, the only things that can be clear about its effect are "a rush in my heart, leaving aside the reality and no worries" and "as if I have everything around me, it seems to build a barrier with others", and the others belong to the prelude. (Actually, many poems have preludes, but you can skip them after you have become fully proficient in those poems.) ）

The specific effect of these two effective lyrics will be slowly discovered in the actual combat in the future. At present, Wang Xiao only knows that the former can speed up his strength and speed, and the latter is Wang Xiao's only defensive skill at present. (The "bone like King Kong" in the self-improvement of men only strengthens the resistance of their own bodies, but it is not a defensive skill.) And the ideal "building a diaphragm" is to add a protective layer, which can be seen as a skill like a magic shield. But Wang Xiao faintly felt that there must be other hidden effects in this song, but because he was not skilled enough or the true yuan was not enough or other reasons, he could not show the complete effect.

In general, after a year of hard training, the current Wang Xiao can be regarded as a different from what it used to be. Whether it is the true amount or the attack technique, it is already considered a small achievement.

At present, Wang Xiao has already practiced some of the most basic poems of Liangentang very proficiently, such as the single attack skill "Silver Star Falling", the acceleration technique "Thousands of Miles Without Staying", the jumping skill "Floating Ascension to the Sky", and the concealment skill "Deep Hiding and Fame". Wang Xiao, who had a large amount of True Yuan to squander, would not plan to practice like other Lotus Root Hall disciples when practicing these low-level techniques, but practiced until he was satisfied.

You know, magic is not the same thing when you learn it. It takes a lot of practice to become proficient. The techniques that have been mastered and the techniques that have just been learned are completely different in terms of power.

However, the amount of heaven and earth vitality that ordinary cultivators can condense every day is limited, and it is not like physical strength that can be squandered to the fullest. Therefore, when practicing spells, it is often necessary to plan first: "The true element condensed by meditating today can have 40 MP, the silver star falls once consumes 1 MP, and the thousands of miles do not stay every five seconds consume 2 MP, how many times can I use what kind of spells? How long do I need to practice the proficiency of the silver star falling ......."

Although this is just a game-like statistic, the reality is still the case. So if you don't have a plan, you can't do anything.

As the saying goes, one trick is eaten all over the world, so generally every cultivator will choose a technique that he likes very much to practice. For example, Li Xianglian only chooses the poetry of the wind system to practice, and other poetry is often not proficient. Jia Wenting's personality is biased towards coldness, so the techniques used are mostly water and ice. Liu Zhenwu has a heroic personality, and he is mainly a soldier.

And Wang smiled...... Now it's not that Wang Xiao wants to choose any spell, but that Wang Xiao can only use those low-level poems. On the contrary, as long as the disciples of the Blue Lotus Sect have reached the middle of the human rank, they will never waste their true yuan to practice for low-level poems such as Silver Star Fall, but will put the limited true yuan on their favorite poems. Therefore, Liu Zhenwu and Li Xianglian will only practice the techniques they currently want to practice when they practice on weekdays, and will definitely not use Silver Star Fall. Because even though the Silver Star Fall consumes very little True Yuan, it is not worth practicing for them.

And Wang Xiao not only has Lao Hei, a high-ranking monster as the backing of the true yuan, but also has the skills of refining the demon pill taught by Lao Hei, and can get the true yuan by directly decomposing the demon pill. Therefore, the proficiency level of these basic techniques was really the highest among the second-generation disciples of the Lotus Root Hall at this time. Even in the entire Qinglian Sect, there are not many people who are more skilled than Wang Xiaolai in low-level techniques such as Silver Star Falling and Thousands of Miles Not Staying. It was precisely because Wang Xiao was extremely proficient in low-level spells that he was able to create a compressed silver star explosion that was equivalent to nine times the power of the ordinary silver star falling. Although this move is very restrictive, in terms of power, it is more powerful than many high-level spells.

In addition to these poems that belong to the lower ranks, Wang Xiao also has his own Silver Star Burst, as well as three self-created poems "Waving Sleeves", "Men Should Be Self-Improvement" and "Goodbye Ideal". Although most of these three new poems are only the effect of strengthening their own physical bodies, after the poems of the Blue Lotus Sect have been understood by the various cultivation sects in the Shura Realm in the past 10,000 years, this kind of new poetry duels can exert effects other than power at critical times.

But because Wang Xiao is always only fighting monsters, and does not go to PK with other cultivators, Wang Xiao himself doesn't know how powerful it is.

However, the opportunity to test Wang Xiao's strength has arrived, because the triennial Chu County Sect Disciple Competition-Xiao Fengming will officially start after August 15 this year.

And the six disciples of the Lotus Root Hall will elect three people to participate in this grand event.

———————————————————————————————

This is the beginning of the intense second volume. The cultivator conference was officially opened.

The fierce battle, the undercurrent hidden under the battle, the wonderful magic battles of the hundreds of schools of thought containing these various philosophical ideas, will be shown in front of everyone one by one, and the mysterious heroine Ruoxue will appear in a high-profile appearance again, please vote for it.

Originally, the change of volume should have been counted from the first chapter, but seeing others in hundreds of chapters and thousands of chapters, they were also quite envious, so they simply opened a new volume, but the number of chapters continued.
